Many researchers and product developers have eagerly included nanomaterials in their product development planning – anticipating that these unique materials will offer measurable differences in their products and give them an advantage in the marketplace. The unfortunate reality, is that in certain (and common) instances, these groups are left underwhelmed and frustrated with the process of incorporating nanomaterials and the results they received.
The solution lies in precision design of the nanomaterial, successful scale-up and robust manufacturing.
Oftentimes, when working with catalog nanomaterials, they possess attributes that may interfere with the chemistry in a specific product or system (such as non-optimal solvents, dispersants, pH, additives, size requirement, etc.). Similarly, when working with a nanomaterial that was internally developed by a product development team, they may experience difficulties that go beyond design – including material optimization, product integration, cost optimization, and scale-up.
See Cerion.
Cerion provides companies with nanomaterials that successfully integrate into products and with optimal performance by using an iterative and phased approach. During nanomaterial design and optimization, we listen to your material goals and the information you can share on your product and processing conditions to develop a Phase 1 material. Following your feedback on what aspects could offer further improvement, we refine the nanomaterial accordingly – with modifications including particle size, dispersity, concentration, capping agent selection, and solvent system. In scale-up, we apply our proprietary processes and extensive in-house analytical capabilities to scale-up a nanomaterial 1,000 to 10,000x while preserving critical design attributes. We then transition that formulation and development process into our manufacturing environment for high volume, cost-effective material production. Our established expertise and processes have proven successful for product development teams spanning 40+ industries.

Nanomaterial Properties
When considering leveraging nanomaterials for a product or system, many companies focus on a single material or limited set of commercial, off-the-shelf materials, often running into several challenges - over-budget, imploded development timelines, and materials that aren't able to scale to commercial volumes. See examples of properties that can be leveraged across many use cases.
